For the Burgers
  • 1 lb Ground Chicken (93% lean)
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese can substitute with goat cheese or omit
  • 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
  • 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley or dill
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper

  • 1 tbsp Lemon Zest
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs or almond flour for gluten-free
  • 1 large Egg
To Serve
  • 1 cup Tzatziki Sauce fresh or store-bought
  • 2 cups Fresh Vegetables (lettuce, sliced tomatoes, cucumbers)
  • 4 pieces Buns or Pita (whole grain or gluten-free)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, feta cheese, onion, garlic, parsley or dill, oregano, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, lemon juice, breadcrumbs, and egg. Mix gently.
  2. Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties.
Cooking
  1. Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes per side until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Serving
  1. Serve the burgers in buns or pita, topped with tzatziki sauce and fresh veggies.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, swap breadcrumbs with almond flour. Don’t skip toasting the garlic before mixing it in for enhanced flavor. These burgers can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
